The call to Leadership

The call to leadership is made throughout the Bible. Let us look at the creation of man.

Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth . . ." Genesis 1:26 (NIV)

God is the ultimate leader. and calls every believer to lead others. How do we all lead? By being different and by making a difference. God created man for great things to do. At the fall of man when sin entered the garden. God could have started over, but He chose not to. So how do we lead others? By our actions or what we say and do. Have you ever done something for someone else without being asked to, you know gone out of the way to do something? That is an example for others around you to follow. Do you also have a kind or encouraging words when talking to people about others. When you speak well of others and encourage them. These are examples of leadership because you are leading by example. Look how God used various leaders throughout the Bible, like Abraham, Moses and Joshua to name a few.

Every time God desired to do something great, He called a leader to step forward. Today He still calls leaders to step forward for every work-both large and small.
